I am about to make my first significantly large purchase and i was just wondering the quality of fast tech is it good shipping, and product quality? I also broke down and bought ejuice i know some people say to stay away from out of the country ejuices but the prices are to good not to give them a try :laugh:
I hate to say this but I've heard a lot of negative reviews about them. I was going to order from them too, because of their outrageously cheap prices right?! Well the people who were satisfied basically said "you get what you pay for" which I take it the quality was just melancholy. I've also heard that some of their things are fake, like the juices don't taste legitimate.

So far I trust RTDvapor, and Gotvapes. Just did 2 HUGE orders today from them.

I have been very happy with fasttech. A lot of the products are knockoffs and some are very good. If you know what you are looking for and are willing to take a chance you will fare well. I would not recommend someone get their first kit there because of delays and possible knockoff problems- it could take quite awhile with returns if doa. As far as juice try it you may like it. I use dekang dk-tab as a base for several of my diy mixes and love it. Try lots of products and make up your own mind.

Have ordered 4 times from FT and very happy with everything. As for lower quality gear- PVs, clearos, etc I make absolutely sure I know what I'm ordering. Knockoffs are part and parcel of the vape world with Vendors everywhere selling clones- not just an issue with Chinese based Vendors.
As for juice I DIY so can afford to buy the best ingredients. Would only buy Chinese juice knowing full well where the juice came from. Because there are no hard and fast rules/ laws in China regarding patents literally the majority of the gear we buy and use are knockoffs.

Some more detail about the e-liquids you've purchased would be good. There are some Dekang/Hangsen juices on there at the moment that are causing a bit of a stir in another UK-based forum.

I've not had an issue with FastTech. Many orders made and received! When there was a problem, they took care of it ASAP, and everything is warrantied. If it is not working as designed, return it. Waiting for the latest order now of another starter kit for a friend.

While I agree that Much of FT's stuff is low quality and knock offs, that is not true of Everything. You can't willy nilly pick an item just due to cost and expect the best in return. Many of the higher priced items are very good, and still lower priced than other places. Many knock offs are great and work better than the originals.. But again, not everything is perfect.

The juice is the same you can get anywhere, names that many of us have used since we started vaping. Some is OEM, made to be rebranded, some is named and some I wouldn't touch! LOL

Free shipping, warranties, low prices. That's good enough for me, and if I ever have an issue with something I get, I will speak out about it!
 
Summary. The majority are knock offs. In saying that knockoffs are often just as good, if not better than the originals. I have tried 4 of there liquids, all but 1 tasted like toxic chemicals, chocolate was fine but not the greatest. The devices they sell are excellent, i have a vamo and have heard nothing but good reviews about their itaste. If you want links post a reply, more than happy to help ;)

I too have ordered many times from FT. My SVD, ITASTE, and Kanger pro tanks and other KANGORS came from them. Many cords and cables and chargers, batteries,egos etc...
Probably 600 bucks in a dozen total orders. In all that I have had one battery thats come in DOA, and the 450 ego batteries dont last but an hour or two. Ive had an ego clone variable that was bad too. BUT... if you tell them, they send an RMA and remind you that you havent sent the defective product back. A good experience all in all.
With that said, the shipping out of their facility has gotten incredibly poor this past week. I have two orders from 5 days ago that have not started to ship yet.

Fasttech carries both branded and unbranded products.
ALL branded products are as they should be, including E-liquids.
Unbranded, you need to study and decide for yourself.

I play the odds with larger multiple item orders. Even if one or two items are not so good, I still come out way ahead.

Totally agree. The Innokin products are genuine, the Kanger knockoffs are working just fine. Think about this, you can get a genuine iTaste 3.0, mvp or SVD for somewhere between half to one-third the US price with free shipping. How do you pass that up. Who knows what an original Vamo is anymore (we could find the threads here easy enough, but that's not my point), but $28 - $32 for the tube? Are you kidding me? Sure shipping takes 11 days to my house from order. I've only had three completed orders, all excellent. Original nitecore I4 charger for half price from them, a genuine UCan, the list goes on and on. I'm sold, but maybe I'll have bad experience one of these times. I've already saved $100, so how bad could it be? Me likee....

can't say much will follow up later
but i'm a noob and ordered a vivi nova and an evod from them

received both however the vivi nova completely broke first day...all i did was rinse with warm water and let it dry overnight...thought what I saw was just water mark didn't think much...loaded liquid (edit and no it wasn't my clove juice, was a coffee/french vanilla) again noticed what I thought was just a bubble...put it on my vv twist and heard a crack...took it off and it continued to crack, dumped juice out and the poor thing continued to crack until it was finally dry :( currently playing tag with support so we'll see

as for the evod it seems to be working just fine my only nitpick which isn't really their fault is i've noticed some of the coloring is already rubbing off (i've only had it 2 days) from the edge of the view window....but when I only paid $10 for 2 tanks and an usb charger i'm not gonna complain about the rubber color coating coming off the stainless steel lol

i'd still order from them again....as stated the low prices are hard to beat so even if i get a bad experience with the damaged nova...eh it was cheap so live and learn....thinking to get a metal nova if I can just cuz i like the look and after reading many posts it seems a regular nova wouldn't handle my juices (clove, cinnamon, lemon, ect) and refilled cartomizers all the time is getting old
